Lots of people do, but they can become like crack to a fish so one needs to keep that in mind. I was at a friends last week, he was feeding his adult Chili Red freeze dried mealworms from Walmart.

Marketed for birds, but his aro certainly approved of them.

Thx for the input fellas. I'd like to move away from pellets not totally but limit the usage with my carnivores. The idea is to mix in live insects like mealworms and crickets along FD versions and various meaty foods like tilapia, shrim, and krill
I feed freeze dried minnows to my fish. I haven't seen anybody else do this. Not sure about aros.
You can also stuff them with all kinds of other foods.

I had a group of African Butterfly fish that I would feed Fluker's freeze dried crickets and freeze dried meal worms.
Those 2 insects are crappy feeders. Dubia roaches and earthworms would be a much better option. Dubias have a longer digestive track and gut load a lot better. The bearded dragon would like the Dubias as well
